If a cruise is on your travel programme this year and you have a reasonably affordable budget to do so, then the door to a lot of interesting travel experiences is open.

However, if you're looking for the best of the best, consider one of these cruises that have recently been popular among affluent travellers according to luxury travel agencies, GOBankingRates writes.

Here are three luxury cruises you can book this year:

Around the World Cruise

Price: from $99,449 per person

If you're looking for an unforgettable experience, consider booking a world cruise.

"The ultimate cruise experience for those with the time and money to invest is a world cruise, which typically lasts over 100 days and visits ports in dozens of countries spanning multiple continents," said Sarah Lang, owner of Luxury Round The World travel agency. "It's the best way to experience the wonders of different parts of the world, unpacking your suitcase only once and enjoying the incredible onboard amenities and ocean views between stops instead of spending time in airports."

Several cruise lines offer such experiences. Lang recommends looking for a cruise line that is truly all-inclusive.

Culture and nature in Papua New Guinea

Price: from $10,030 per person

This luxury cruise offered by Ponant is a 13-day expedition cruise that explores the wonders of Papua New Guinea and its ancient tribes.

"Affluent travellers like unique itineraries that are a true expedition to places few have ever been," said Mary Curry, senior travel planner at Adventure Life. "This cruise travels along the east coast of Papua New Guinea in the Southwest Pacific, where picturesque fjords, pristine coral atolls and remote villages thrill travellers with the means to access this off-road destination. It's home to some of the last relatively untouched cultures in the world, as well as fantastic scuba diving and bird watching."

Remote Arctic cruise in Canada

Price: from $12,395 per person

Another unusual option, this 12-day Quark Expeditions cruise takes passengers through Canada's Northwest Passage to Ellesmere and the Axel Heiberg Islands.

"This cruise visits some of the most remote islands in northern Canada, far north of the Arctic Circle, that only the most serious explorers have ever visited," Curry said. "It's a true expedition into the wilderness in search of pristine icebergs, polar bears, whales and maybe even the elusive narwhal. You will aboard a newer ship that is equipped with two helicopters for excursions."
